Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official manufacturer documentation to confirm exact electrical characteristics and environmental ratings. Confirm availability status as distribution channels may list obsolete or limited stock items. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints and thermal management solutions before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Compare this model against other Stratix V variants based on required transceiver count and logic density. Evaluate power consumption profiles relative to the 900 mV core voltage operation. Assess package constraints to ensure the 1517-ball FBGA form factor fits the target design board layout and assembly capabilities.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Altera Stratix V GX family, which targets high-performance serial communication and DSP applications. The 'GX' designation indicates the inclusion of high-speed transceivers. It succeeds earlier generations by offering increased logic density and improved transceiver performance while maintaining pin-to-pin compatibility with select previous generation designs where applicable.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements are not publicly confirmed for this specific part number. Consider evaluating newer Intel Agilex families or legacy Stratix IV/GX models if architectural differences are acceptable. Verify that any substitute offers equivalent transceiver speeds and I/O counts.
